Question
The technical specifications
show an operating range of
300 meters / 900 feet outdoors.
How come my baby monitor
manages much less than that?
The link is lost every now and
then, sound interruptions etc.
What happens during a mains
failure?
Is my DECT baby monitor
secure from eavesdropping and
interference?
Some buttons do not seem to
work when I press them.
What do I do wrong?
Frequently asked questions
15
Answer
The specified range is only valid outdoors in open air. Inside
your house the workable range is limited by the amount
and type of walls and/or ceilings in between. Inside the
house the operating range will be up to 50 meters /
150 feet.
You are probably approaching the outer limits of the
practical range.Try a different location or decrease the
distance slightly. Please note that it takes about 30 seconds
each time before a new link between the units is
established.
When batteries are installed in the both units, the units will
automatically switch over to battery use in case of mains
failure.
The 120 channels guarantee no interference from other
equipment.
Except for the On/Off buttons (A-1, B-6), only press the
buttons briefly.

technology. It makes it possible to hear your baby at a range of
up to 300 meters / 900 feet in open air.
